Eastern Europe

Exploring the Hidden Europe in 2004 and 2009

In 2004, I visited every country in Eastern Europe.  On this page you can read my blog entries from that trip.

In 2008-2009, I returned to see what had changed since that time. 

With these two visits, five years apart, I accumulated enough material for my new book, The Hidden Europe: What Eastern Europeans Can Teach Us.
